【简答题】Read the following passage and complete what are required to Japanese Techniques Come to America In a total of six states in the middle of America, 15,000 assembly-line workers are putting Japanese cars together. These autoworkers are assembling Hondas in Ohio, Toyotas in Kentucky, Mazdas in Michigan, and Nissans in Tennessee. Mitsubishi and Chrysler are jointly making cars in Illinios, and Subaru and Isuzu have set up shops in Indiana. The Japanese have brought more than their technology to their U.S. auto plants——they have also brought their own way of doing things. Using Japanese management techniques, managers at these plants have motivated American workers to produce cars of the same high quality as those made in Japan. There is a definite Japanese philosophy of all-for-one and one-for- all running through the day-to-day operations of these plants. For example, there are no narrow job classifications: No one is a welder or a painter. Instead, a visitor finds” technicians” at Nissan, “associates” at Honda, and “team members” at Mazda and Toyota. Employees at these manufacturing plants work in small, highly-coordianted groups. Every worker on an assembly line is responsible for his or her particular job, for inspecting the overall quality of the product at hand, and for improving the production process. Management tries to make all workers feel equally important. Assembly-line workers actively participate in decisions on scheduling overtime and rotating jobs. The Japanese Managers spend a great amount of time and energy building morale of workers and trying to ensure company harmony. Toyata encourages its “personal touch program”, an effort to promote after-hours socializing between Japanese and American workers. All the cheerleading that goes on in these plants must work very well: Nissan has the best attendance record in the U.S. auto industry, and it does not use time clocks. Team participation and strong interpersonal skills are definite requirements for workers in Japanese companies. Workers are rewarded for the impact they have on their “job team”, and not for any personal performance. Many autoworkers love the Japanese system; others say it is too stressful. 1.

Man is called in Creek the zoon phonanta or talking animal. What makes humanity different from the rest of the animal world is its capacity for constructing a system of sound signals which stand not only for its thoughts and feelings about the outside world but for the outside world itself. You will say at once that certain birds talk and some of them talk very well. Chimpanzees can be taught a number of words and a few simple grammatical structures. But only human beings are able to invent whole languages, not merely mimic parts of them or handle a few nouns and verbs. When an animal began to talk, that animal called itself man.

Speech certainly came before the discovery of fire. We still tend to use speech not for conveying messages or expressing feelings but merely for establishing and sustaining human contact.

The act of speaking serves primarily the end of sociability. It does not have to mean anything, but it has to be continuous. At dinner parties a prolonged silence is the most embarrassing thing in the world: it seems to indicate that sociability has failed. It is often broken by more than one person’s speaking at the same time -- excuse me -- sorry -- after you -- no, after you -- and what is said is far less important than the fact of somebody having said something, anything. Every body breathes a sigh of relief, especially the hostess.

We have no means of knowing what the language of, say Stone Age man, was like, but we know something of that ancient language known as Indo-European because its structure and some of its vocabulary, much changed, survive in the daughter languages, which means most of the languages of Europe. It seems to have been a complex language, with a rich grammar, not at all like Malay or Chinese, and it is fairly certain that the further back we go in our study of language the greater complexities we find.

The simplification of language is essentially a part of the modernization of language: modern English is grammatically much simpler than its ancestor Anglo-Saxon, and Italian and Spanish are much simpler than their mother Latin. It is wrong to think of the first talkers taking a few linguistic bricks, joining them together, then baking more bricks and adding them to make a more and more imposing structure. An original babble was associated with a particular feeling or thought, but it was only in the period after, say, the break-up of the Roman Empire that grammarians began to analyze the parts of this babble and come up with terms like noun, verb, adjective, and adverb.

All of us say things we never said before, and without much conscious effort; we' re always inventing new things to say. That is the great human talent. This talent is based, however, on a very simple peculiarity of the human brain -- its capacity to think in opposed structures.

Look at it this way: the spectrum has many colors in it, and man learned to pick out colors as separable items. He did more; he learned how to make them into signs of opposed meaning. You have only to think of a traffic signal to see that this is so. Now out of the babble of noise which the human vocal system is capable of producing it is possible to separate specific sounds and oppose one to the other. Pick does not mean the same as pig, because/k/is opposed to/ g/, though those two sounds only differ (in English, anyway) in that one is breathed and the other sung. This structuralist gift of the human brain enables us to talk of tiny structures that oppose each other in doing separate jobs and, taken together, add up to a language.

What makes human beings different from the rest of the animal world is their ability to ______.

A．learn a number of words

B．be taught a few grammatical structures

C．invent whole languages

D．to express their thoughts and feelings
